My Riffs

Hang on, it will pass.  Not every season in life is easy and desirable.  But hang on it will pass.  Today had a few storms blow through. It got dark, rainy and there was thunder, lightening and potential of tornados. But it passed. The evening was sunny and clear.  A good metaphor for life. It gets rough at times, but look ahead cause there will be sunshine again. 

You know what tasks feel the best to take care of? The ones we dread. The ones we’ve been putting off.  Purposely getting those undesirable tasks done gives us a boost and momentum.  So dive into the things you’ve been avoiding. 

What you say no to makes a huge difference in your yeses.  Saying no refines what is necessary and filters out the unnecessary. Saying no preserves your resources for your yes.  Don’t waste your yeses on frivolous activities that don’t support your big goals. Refine. Say no. Put that energy into the yeses that matter so much the more. 

A true friend will tell you where you can get better. They may do it kindly and subtly but a true friend will help you get better. 

What you love will always be revealed.  Your actions will reveal what you love and cherish.  Your love can only be hidden for a short time, it will be revealed. Set your love on things that are worth it. 

How you feel on the inside and how healthy you are on the inside will show on the outside.  If not immediately, eventually.  Do the inner work. Those around you will benefit.
